Low Carb Sugar Free Keto Blueberry Muffin by Taylor at Food, Faith, Fitness
It’s hard to believe these muffins only have 5.4 net carbs. I would have to eat almost five to get the same amount of carbs found in the average blueberry muffin. It’s very exciting to be able to enjoy one or maybe two of these with some hot tea or coffee in the morning. They’re moist and delicious and hold a strong punch of fat and protein.

Low Carb Keto Everything Bagels by Kyndra D. Holley at Peace, Love and Low Carb
We’ve all most likely learned that an average bagel contains about 52g of carbohydrates so this treat is probably something you’ve learned to live without. However, that no longer has to be the case. These bagels only have 6 grams of net carbs each and have the flavor and texture you’d expect and want in a bagel. Time to get out the cream cheese and lox, or maybe some peanut butter or whatever else you’ve been dying to put on top of your missed friend for breakfast or lunch.
